The Promenade Concert.

The grassy lawn in front of Salem Acad-
envy presented u scene last Saturday night
which reminded one of a glimpse into fairy
land. A promenade concert had been an
nounced for the occasion with ice-cream and
cake and chat on the bill of fare, the pro-
ceeds to go for the benefit of the Salem Lit
erary Society. The enclosure was thronged
with hundreds of gay young people, and
festiyity and merriment held full sway, and
while the sweet strains of the Wachovia
cornet brass band supplied hither and thith
er waves of harmonic beauty, and the bril-
liant glare of myriads of lights frInged with
gold, the emerald roof overhead pillard by
the sturdy columns of giant oaks, fairy forms
were seen to glide here and there, airy feet
were seen to skip with graceful freedom,
and the musical ripples of merry laughter
were heard to commingle like the tinkle of
silver bells. Ever and anon two forms might
have been indistinctly seen drifting in the
direction of the long avenue leading to the
cemetery, where hearts may be be lovingly
intertwined and words of love breathed into
listening ears, with no sound to interrupt
the rapture of the dream but the musical
whispering of the grand old cedars that
loom in emerald wall on either side and
overarch the sacred spot below.
The promenade" was voted a most pleas
ant affair by all and should be repeated at
an early day. The cash proceeds amounted
to something over one hundred dollars.

A meeting of the Farmers Institute of
Guilford county was held at Greensboro last
Friday, which, from all accounts we judge
was most satisfactory affair, and will be
productive of much good. Some of the citl-
zens of Winston-Salem were in attendance
and the following, from the Greensboro
Workman, is of interest:
Soon after the Institute was opened for
business this forenoon DIR. Bahnson, of Sa-

the necessity of improved methods of agri-

The Boys at the Capital.

1t was woebegone set Of boys that
emerged from the armory of the Forsyth
Rihemen after the company meeting last
Friday night, and when asked what they
were looking so sick about it was discovered
that their contemplated trip to the National
Drill at Washington had fallen through.
They were unable to secure men enough to
go as a company, and arrangements had
been made with the High Point Guard to
meet them at Greensboro and combine their
forces, in that way to make the required
number. Friday, however, the High Point
boys telegraphed that they could not go,
which spoiled the whole game. But about
noon one of our typos came in with smile
on his face like unto a rainbow. 4 tele-
gram had been received from Col. Glenn at
Greensboro ordering Lieut.. Bessent to bring
all the men he could as color guard, and
the morning train bore away about a dozen
